Unremarkable Day For Houston’s C.J. Stroud

Sunday, December 1, 4:25 PM

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had a moderately productive day against one of the NFL's worst defenses, finishing 22-for-34 for 242 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in a 23-20 victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He also rushed for eight yards in the win. The Texans managed only two field goals in the first half and were outgained overall, but ultimately did enough to build and protect the lead. The second-year quarterback has been decent overall, but for fantasy purposes, has delivered only a couple game-changing weeks. Stroud and the Texans will look to make their final playoff push after a Week 14 bye.

Anthony Richardson Accounts For Three TDs In Thrilling Win

Sunday, December 1, 9:10 PM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson completed just 12 of 24 pass attempts for 109 yards in Sunday's 25-24 win over the Patriots. Despite those lackluster numbers, the 22-year-old had a strong fantasy day as he threw two touchdown passes, rushed nine times for 48 yards and a touchdown, while adding a two-point conversion with 12 seconds left in the game that gave the Colts the one-point victory. He also threw two interceptions in the contest. While it hasn't been pretty, the second-year pro has gotten it done for fantasy in two of the last three games since being reinserted as the starter with six TDs combined on the ground and via the pass. However, he'll have a hard time putting up significant numbers in Week 15 when the Colts come out of their bye week, as they will have to travel to Denver to take on the Broncos' pass defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs coming into Week 14.
